摘要: Objective Hormone therapy (HT) alleviates menopausal symptoms, but there is a lack of consensus regarding its use among premenopausal ovarian cancer survivors. Methods We systematically reviewed the literature and searched Medline (1966-2014), Scopus (2004-2014), Popline (1974-2014), ClinicalTrials.gov (2008-2014), Cochrane Central Register Controlled Trials CENTRAL (1999-2014) databases reference lists electronically retrieved studies. Statistical meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1 software. Results Six studies were included in our systematic review, which involved 1,521 women. Among them, 451 women (29.6%) received HT, whereas remaining 1,070 (70.4%) did not receive any treatment. noticed statistically significant reduction cancer-related deaths who HT (odds ratio, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.28-0.80); however, disease recurrence rates differ between two groups 0.71; 0.45-1.14). Studies present review report difference overall survival disease-free receiving controls. Conclusions Based on results meta-analysis, does influence odds recurrence; this conclusion must be confirmed separately because limitations methodological quality included.
